Breast milk is rich in nutrients which babies need for their healthy development.
To keep the milk healthy, you should observe the following storage times:

• 2-3 hours unchilled
• 48 hours in a fridge
• 2 weeks in the freezing compartment of a fridge (**)
• 3 months in a freezer (at the bottom/back) (***)
• 6 months in a chest freezer (****)<i/>
• Do not defrost frozen breast milk in the microwave!

Thawed milk is separated into an aqueous and a fatty phase. Swirl the milk gently after thawing to mix the layers. Frozen breast milk may have a slightly different colour. This, however, does not mean that the milk is bad.
